A Quote by Shahid Khan

I don't think there is a sound UK bank now, at least, if there is one I don't know about it. The City of London is finished, the financial centre of the world is moving east. All the money is in Asia. Why would it go back to the West? You don't need London.

I want to clear this once and for all. I was born in Hong Kong. I grew up in Japan and China. London is not home for me.
